When Goodwin, a wandering minstrel, sought shelter for the night with the mysterious hermit Melas, he little knew that he had taken the first step on a dangerous quest in search of a missing queen. It was the queen -- a missing chess piece - that alone could end the dispute between Count Yesteryear and his enemy Sadolf and, in his search for it, Goodwin was to have many extraordinary adventures before the queen was found and the mystery solved. Paul Hulshof and Robert Vincent Schipper have created an original and fascinating book in which the exciting story is matched by pictures which, with their humour and detail, evoke all the mystery and magic of the Dark Ages.
